  • Bad characterization is the unrealistic or unfeasible portrayal of characters in fiction, and it is a staple of badfic. In fact, nearly every charge list compiled in a PPC mission will include a mention of bad characterization in some form or another. Bad characterization is a major part of the difference between a Mary Sue and a believable original character. Characterization is either direct or indirect. Direct characterization is what the narrator, another character, or the character him- or herself explicitly tells us they are like, and may or may not be reliable (depending on the speaker). Indirect characterization is based on the character's observed actions, thoughts, speech, and mannerisms. If the integrity either one of these avenues of characterization is called into question, that character should probably be more closely examined. Because, of course, bad characterization is bad.

Bad Characterization is a major part of the difference between a Mary Sue and a believable original character. Characterization is either direct or implied. Direct characterization is what the narrator explicitly says, and is not up to debate. Implied characterization is fuzzier: based on the character's observed actions and mannerisms. If the integrity either one of these avenues of characterization is called into question, that character should probably be more closely examined. Because, of course, bad characterization is bad.
